Eating at McDonald's is not what I'm referring to. Again, do not a lot of people choose to, of free will, practice religion? Does religion belong in public schools? It does not financially benefit the students to give 80% of your donation to McDonald's and the other 20% to the PTA.

It helps me realize that "corporate sponsored" doesn't mean "evil" all of the time, and that every time people choose to fight against such things it just makes it all that much less attractive for big donors to keep giving.

Right which is exactly why above I say that I somewhat revised my viewpoint on this above. "corporate sponsorship" does mean "evil" when it is using children for profit at the cost of their wellbeing I think. Otherwise congratulations on all your efforts that raised millions. Maybe you can tell us more about them.
